    JP Moreland
    Thomas Merton
    Bill Hybels/Willow Creek
    Rick Warren

    This week we take a hard look at the mystic, meditation, and mayhem of the contemplative spirit wing of the apostate church. What is their Biblical bases for these teachings? What is their angle and goal to new and non Christians? Why is the practice wrong and what is the right answer? We look into all of this and more tonight on the show.

    No, you will just be uncomfortable and look silly. Now if you do the whole yoga thing and contemplate your navel, well that would be unbiblical.

    That falls under the, "You might be emergent if..." category.
    Matthew 22:36-39

    36 "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?"

    37 And He said to him, " 'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'

    38 "This is the great and foremost commandment.

    39 "The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'

    Great!

    This will be a show that will be tough to connect all the dots in the time allowed. We ask for help with the Tech stuff and that God uses us to say only what He wants said.

    Father, we have been beset with technical difficulties in the recent weeks. We humbly come before you to smooth over the problems so that the Truth can be shared with those who listen tonight. May you receive glory and honor as others are touched and find themselves bowing before You.

    Please be with Matt, Chris, Bibi and all who participate. Amen.

    Matt, is Tuesday's night show archived yet? As you know, I had to miss the Willow Creek part due to DS' wanting to use the computer.

    On a baseball related note, Chris Carpenter and Adam Wainwright both got ripped off for the Cy Young award. If you're interested, you can read my take on it at the link to my Cards blog below. I guess only one Cy Young award is allowed in the Midwest.

    Yes, Tuesday nights show is available on our Blog Talk Radio page. Simply go to www.blogtalkradio.com/RaptureReadyRadio and right click on "download" under the Tuesday show title. This is where you can also add the show to
    I Tunes and things like that.

    Also, at least the Royals beat the Cards in something this year, the Cy Young! Great blog!
